Abstract: | The research was conducted on the implementation of investment laws by
different investment organs of government by taking Hawassa city as a focus
area. It studied what legal and institutional factors affect investment inflows
in the city. At the same time it studied the different issues faced by investors
and those who have relation to investments. The research applied a
qualitative case study. The Ethiopian legal system has made changes to the
investment laws in last ten years in order to attract investment. So it was
wise to see the implementation of the laws at the city level. The practice of
the laws has seen many issues echoed by different groups and research
works. Investment is affected by many factors such as lack of strong, efficient
and effective institutions; corruption and the gap that are created in the laws
are some of them. The laws have to be implemented to their fullest in order
to achieve their goals. The country has been attracting investment and has
become a destination for foreign direct investment. Hawassa as well has
become a center for investment in Ethiopia among major cities. For a better
investment inflow to the city and the country one has to see the
implementation of the different investment laws. The first chapter is about
factors that affect investment and the core issues that needed to be
addressed. Chapter two shows the policy framework of the investment laws
with regard to incentives, sectors of investment, procedure of acquiring
investment permits and powers of the investment board and agency. On this
chapter I have shown the problems that are faced by investors and
investment bureaus with the service provision, access to land and also
incentives. The chapter also shows the loopholes in the law that need to be
addressed. |
